Some Things you Probably Didn't Know About Me

I don't eat vegetables. This started when I was still an infant. In order to get me to eat any kind of vegetable, my mother would surround meat with mushed-up vegetable. At the age of 2, I was picking out the meat and getting rid of all that other stuff that, in my mind, was inedible. To this day, I eat tomatoes only in sauces and spinach only when forced to. The other vegetables are a non-starter.

I never learned how to hold a pen properly. You know how most people use three fingers to grip it in a kind of traingle shape? I just make a fist and jam a pen in there. Despite this one "writing-related" quirck, I can touch-type with great agility.

I used to be extremely shy around girls. I didn't ask out a girl until I was in my last year of high school.

The first time I was ever materially rewarded for my writing, it was by Lonely Planet guidebooks for really embarrassing story that involved me performing *ahem* certain hygenic acts with wadded-up Indonesian currency. They gave me a guide to "Westen Europe". Western was spelled wrong.

I've read every Harry Potter book.

When I go out to the bars and have had a good amount to drink, I really enjoy having a taxi take me through a drive-thru window. I order from the back seat. I used to do this all the time with Burger King, before every one in Kingston closed down.
